This selection in Coach House's Artists' Choice: Black Box Series will play two nights only, Tuesday and Wednesday December 13 and 14, with curtain time at 8:00 pm. Artists' Choice Series shows are designed to offer edgier, more contemporary fare than Coach House's Subscription Series. All tickets are only $10, with student tickets available FREE (with ID.) (The Santaland Diaries is designed for mature audiences.) The Santaland Diaries will star Jason Leupold, an actor with the distinction of actually having once been a Macy's elf. Leupold is a longtime company member of Ohio Shakespeare Festival, and has performed at True North, Weathervane, as well as many other local theatres. Sarah Coon, who directed the Artists' Choice production of Danny and the Deep Blue Sea, directs. Coach House's intimate, 93-seat theater sells out quickly, so reservations are highly recommended. SHOW TIMES: Tuesday December 13, Wednesday, December 14 at 8:00 pm TICKETS: Adults $10, Students (with ID) free. FOR RESERVATIONS: Contact our box office at 888-71-TICKETS, or visit <http://www.coachhousetheatre.com/> www.coachhousetheatre.com.
